The origins of the property date back to the mid 19 th Century when the farm was made up of different cultures (meadow, garden, cereals, olive trees, vines, etc.). After WWII, René Boisson (Bruno’s grandfather) developed the business. Following the 1956 frost, he decided to replace the frozen olive trees with vines and bought a 10 hectare wood in Largarde-Paréol to cultivate. In 1957, René Boisson left the Cave Coopérative to create his own cellar.
Le Pompon is a tribute to the last Mule of the estate belong ing to Bruno's grandfather, it was used to plo ugh the vineyards , carry the harvest and many other things at the time , once the first tractors arrived at the estate it was replaced but that faithful hard working companion still remains in our hearts and minds.
